DSOGaming writes: "Earlier this month, Human Head revealed – via their Rune Facebook page – that they are interested in reviving this old franchise. Although nothing is certain at this point, Human Head co-founder and senior level designer Ted Halsted revealed that the sequel of the game will be a fast action third person game with many more tactical options, similar to how modern-day shooters are (compared to the old school ones)."
Sony take note. Acquisitions come with both benefits, and pitfalls. In taking control ZeniMax Media, Microsoft got its mitts on the incredible, innumerable IP found in the sprawling toy-box of this inimitable publisher. This of course includes Bethesda Softworks. Once beloved creator of the popular Fallout series, but crucially the sculptors of the incredible Elder Scrolls Universe. Sounds pretty good right? Well, following an amendment to a suit filed by Ragnarok Games, the $7.5b price tag might not tell the whole picture.
Why does Sony have to take note? Acquisitions happen all of the time in all aspects of business outside of video games. There are always risks and rewards.

Curious to see how this goes. Horde Events, Monsters, and New Dungeons Levels Showcased in Gamescom Debut Trailer.
RISE WARRIOR! Ragnarok, the end of days, is upon you. Heed the call of the gods as it’s the only chance to save mankind from the trickster Loki.
Nice, I loved the first Rune, great gameplay, story and mp. Felt like it was ahead of it's time, hoping 2 will be the same.
